Abstract excerpt
NusG is a transcriptional elongation factor in Escherichia coli that aids transcriptional antitermination by the phage lambda N protein. By using NusG affinity chromatography, we found that NusG binds directly and selectively to termination factor rho. NusG was shown previously to be needed for t...
